    Thanks! Great to have the ire exposure levels for v-log. That's a tricky one. Especially in run and gun scenarios. Do you know how to read exactly 7,3 41 and 62 ire from the waveform monitor or is there another way? I guess 10, 40 and 60 will do as well. Thumbs up!

    • @DustinArmstrongPro
      @DustinArmstrongPro  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Probably an expensive monitor on set could give you a good waveform monitor with an exact value. It doesn't have to be exact everytime. Especially if you're a run and gun videographer (like me) it's hard to always expose perfect. You can also check out my video covering 10 secret settings in the S1H. You can use the luminance spot meter in the S1H to also help assist with exposing correctly using a grey card. Hope this help🙏

    Wish one to choose 1dxmark III or s1h for weddings thanks

    • @DustinArmstrongPro
      @DustinArmstrongPro  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Kind of a loaded question. If you aren't invested in Canon, I'd definitely consider the S1H. Personally, the ergonomics of the S1H I think far better than the 1DX mark III. The S1H is smaller, has a flip screen, and it's cheaper as well. The biggest advantage the 1DX mark III has is the Dual Pixel autofocus. It'll destroy the S1H. So if autofocus is important and you are okay with the bigger body, higher price, and not as intuitive design, 1DX Mark III. If you are comfortable dealing with the bad autofocus and having to go manual focus a lot, I think the S1H is a much better value. This doesn't factor a lot of things but hopefully helps with your decision. Good luck🙏

      As far as I'm aware, yes you can finalize in HDR in V-LOG and ProResRAW. You just need an HDR monitor in order to do that and the correct workflow.
